“The venue in Brazil is amazing and the larger space will make the course different than what the EnduroCross regulars are used to” said Eric Peronnard, the creator of EnduroCross and ESPN Enduro X sport organizer. “So we may see some different riders excel on these larger courses and expect exciting racing no matter what”.
